This new drawing of Jesus Christ was created with charcoal on strathmore paper. This second version is a more accurate depiction of the human body and proportions. Of course, most of the drawing was created from my mind, but I did use a model (myself) to get the right proportions. Please post a comment and let me know what you think.

Some Thoughts Behind This Drawing

I was thinking and concentrating on Jesus’s message to love one another. One hand is reaching out and one hand is on his heart for so many reasons: to love God, to love your neighbor as yourself, to be centered on His (Jesus) love, to be centered on your own love, that within you is the Kingdom of Heaven, that within us all is the ability to become like Him, we are all children of God, our souls desire to return to God.

I have received a number of emails from people asking for permission to use my drawings in their church newsletter. I think this is a great idea and I offer permission for use so long as you email me to let me know. I also ask that you include my name and website information near the drawing somewhere: “Created by Jaison Cianelli, CianelliStudios.com”

Jesus Christ from Luke 6:27-36

[27] But I tell you who hear me: Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, [28] bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you. [29] If someone strikes you on one cheek, turn to him the other also. If someone takes your cloak, do not stop him from taking your tunic. [30] Give to everyone who asks you, and if anyone takes what belongs to you, do not demand it back. [31] Do to others as you would have them do to you.

[32] If you love those who love you, what credit is that to you? Even ‘sinners’ love those who love them. [33] And if you do good to those who are good to you, what credit is that to you? Even ‘sinners’ do that. [34] And if you lend to those from whom you expect repayment, what credit is that to you? Even ‘sinners’ lend to ‘sinners,’ expecting to be repaid in full. [35] But love your enemies, do good to them, and lend to them without expecting to get anything back. Then your reward will be great, and you will be sons of the Most High, because he is kind to the ungrateful and wicked. [36] Be merciful, just as your Father is merciful.
